Vacuum Tube Collector

Enerworks uses NARVA vacuum tubes made in Germany. Due to NARVA’s 40-years of experience in the field of glass manufacturing and processing, their extensive knowledge about coating and vacuum processes, as well as experience in the field of glassmetal-compounds, they have been able to realize the production and process for creating top quality products very quickly.

The patented glassmetal-compound between the tubes’ sheathing and absorber makes the product highly robust and durable.

Through the coating with nanoparticles, the transparency of the glass is considerably improved and with that, the effectiveness of the tubes. The certified production in Brand-Erbisdorf includes all the essential production stages and ensures the highest quality possible.

The tube is made at the company’s own glass factory; the prefabrication manufactures the copper absorber units. The assembly of both parts for the finished product takes place at their state of the art manufacturing plant which was put into operation in 2007.

The Enerworks, S-Power Vacuum Tube Collectors were used at the state of the art Solar Thermal system at Oxford Gardens, Woodstock Ontario. The solar thermal energy from the system was used to heat the domestic water, space heating, pool heating, and drive the chiller in the air conditioning system.
